Praça Tiradentes
The definitive center of the town. On the north side of the square is the Escolas de Minas (School of Mines), with a museum of mineralogy. On the south side is the Museu da Inconfidência.

Museu da Inconfidência
This museum is dedicated to the memory of the Inconfidência Mineira, an unsuccessful 1789 revolt against Portuguese rule which was inspired by the American Revolution. The building, one of the best extant specimens of colonial baroque architecture, houses the remains of some of the revolutionaries, a library, archives, and works by artists of the period, including works by Aleijadinho and Manuel da Costa Ataíde.

Taberna Music Bar
Great atmosphere, cozy, with live music, but very ambient music where you can talk to each other. You go down a stepladder and that's it you're in a restaurant which reminds you of those medieval places. Delicious portions.

Soapstone market
On the way down the hill east of Praca Tiradentes is an open-air market with fascinating local creations in soapstone and wood. A great place to find a souvenir.
